IIW Named Best Place to Work

IIW has been named among the “Best Firms to Work For” in the industry by the Zweig Group.

The Best Firms to Work For Award recognizes the top architecture, structural engineering, civil engineering, environmental, geotechnical engineering, landscape architecture/planning, and multi-discipline firms in the US and Canada. It’s based on workplace practices, employee benefits, employee retention rates, and more. This marks the third time that IIW has made the list.

“We know our people are what set us apart and we have worked hard to develop a culture of collaboration that continues to inspire our employees, clients and industry colleagues,” said David Leapaldt, AIA, leader of IIW Minnesota.

To participate, information is gathered from both a corporate survey and individual employee surveys.

Lauren Ray, PE, SE, Vice President and Structural Engineer at IIW, accepted the award on IIW’s behalf at the Awards Conference in Dallas, Texas. “It was an honor to accept the award and be amongst the other great companies that are positively leading the industry into the future,” Ray said.
